You do? With that guy who went to SD (early pick) who went to the pro bowl and Demarcus Ware (just two players) I don't.

Vigsted said:Titans2008, he didn't say Mike Williams would be the best player in 5 years, or over an entire career, he said he was the best player in the draft. Clearly he was not.

VolnTitan said:At the same time, one can't get caught up in the hype that is surrounding Cutler right now as the "player" of the moment and look at the players past successes AND failures...
VolnTitan said:Cutler wasn't even close to a top 10 pick when the season was first over. He is a very good QB, no doubt, but if anyone doesn't think he hasn't benefited from a huge amount of hype, is fooling themselves.
He wasn't close to a top 10 pick in the eyes of draftniks. That's not the same as saying scouts felt the same way.VolnTitan said:Cutler wasn't even close to a top 10 pick when the season was first over.

What would possibly make you think Vince Young would have been any better than Cutler at Vandy? He'd still have had the same crappy OLine, RBs, and WRs (plus no defenive help). Young's stats are due, in large part, to being surrounded by a number of good/great players. Take away his surrounding players and he's going to feel the effect.VolnTitan said:Me personally, I would like Vince Young because I think, based on his full set of skills, would have took Vandy to atleast 1 or 2 bowl games. I like all three, but my point is the hype is being removed from Young and Leinhart, which I am fine with. Like I said, the ones that know more will make the decision.
